1. I don't. It looks serious.
If they really have this capibility, then I believe it is in our national interest to take action. Hopefully we go through the UN this time.

3. It's gotta be a Metal Gear Solid-type thing.
Having a ground war with Iran wouldn't be prudent at this juncture.

5. It certainly isnt in our national interest to take action
it is in our national interest to let the UN and the international community handle this. It is our taking action that has made these countries feel the desperate need to get nukes. Not to mention the massive hypocrisy that we have and want to develop more nuclear weapons while we decry another soveriegn nation for trying to develop them.

4. Telegraph = Hollinger
= Faux Lite. Read, but read with caution.

Our Canadian friends can tell us all about the many fine virtues of Hollinger.

8. UN not Required
The USA can confront two fronts at the same time. No problem. It will be taken care of. We don't need agreements just strength.

11. "Roll out your product in September"....Iran? I don't think so.
Who the hell would even believe what these thugs say after the lies about Iraq and look at the debacle there.
